 It also might be something much more mundane such as a bug in the
 browser which occurs when you have 100+ tabs open and tries to write to
 a misaddressed memory region.

It may well be some malloc()-like routine returning 0, saying no more
memory for you buddy and the code blindly dereferencing that value and
causing a write to the 0-page.  It is a common error with sloppy coders.

OK, first off, I'm the OP. 

I suppose I should be flattered at being addressed as if I were 
an Alpha Plus Technoid; but I'm not one. I'm just an old twice-retired 
bookworm, running Fedora because there's more and better help online for 
it than for anything else I've tried (most of the well-known distros), 
and because I began back in '98 with RedHat. I can't imagine anything I 
have being of interest to an intruder.

All the replies in this thread so far have been way over my head. 
The one thing I gather some of you want is the error message from SEL, 
verbatim. I don't have it; I presume it's in some log somewhere, but I 
have no idea how to find that log.

As for the rest of the comments, however well-meant, I can't tell 
what is wanted; but I'll try to go find it if someone can make it clear 
to me.

My guess is that Arora had well over a hundred, but well under 
two hundred, tabs open when it crashed. SEL then offered me two choices, 
both having something to do with Arora trying to access memory somewhere 
that SEL thought it had no business accessing.

A point that may or may not be relevant is that the machine I was 
using had been running slow, with some of the probably busiest apps (Pan, 
several browsers, and Alpine) seeming especially slow. 

Pan and Firefox (but iirc not Arora) had actually crashed a time 
or two, in one of two ways. Sometimes they just went away, but I could 
restart them (and, with one or two of the browsers, eliminate some of the 
open tabs before full restoration). Sometimes they produced what I've 
called, in another recent thread here, the Diagonal Screen of Death 
(DSoD).

These days, it seems that miscreants have little interest in what's on
your computer, but are interested in using your computer for their
nefarious purposes.

 My guess is that Arora had well over a hundred, but well under 
 two hundred, tabs open when it crashed.

I really don't know how anybody does that, with any browser.  On any
computer that I've ever used, including other people's, the thing grinds
to a sludgey halt when anything more than about twenty tabs are open,
often far less.  Especially with any pages that aren't just plain text.
Scripts, Flash, even just lots of pictures, are the kiss of death.  And,
no, my computer isn't paging out to swap.

Well, I can tell you how it comes about, if you're asking that. 
Then maybe we can find out if any browser(s) tolerate it better than any 
other(s).

Wikipedia is my usual downfall, because I try to treat it much as 
I would a physical encyclopedia, especially a big single-volume one -- in 
which case, having begun one article, I'd turn to related articles, 
insert scraps of paper, and go back.

Say I start to read about aspirin. It's a short article, but as 
usual, there are several links. One or two will be short enough to click 
to, read, and return, without losing context. Others will turn out to be 
pretty long; go back, click this time to open in another tab, and resume 
reading about aspirin. Then still other links will refer to things I've 
long wanted to read about; again, open a background tab. And so on -- 
recursively.

And if this sounds bad, be assured that when I had a carrel in 
the stacks of a big library (as I did for twenty years) it was an order 
of magnitude more onerous.

The thing of it is, though, that it's so insidious. The row of 
tabs grows gradually, and the slowing down is also gradual, and it gets 
to be a little like quicksand. However, any time I'm not otherwise 
preoccupied, I can always read my way through a long and known to be 
interesting sites, closing tabs behind me. But don't do it with any 
browser that doesn't keep a current list of your tabs!

Arora has just crashed. SELinux reports that I may be under 
attack and should report. I'm guessing it's a lot more likely SELinux is 
being needlessly paranoid. (I'm running F17, fully updated, and arora had 
a probably excessive number of tabs open.)

Is this guess plausible? What should I do?

I read what you wrote and I have no idea what you're talking about or what kind 
of help you are expecting.

Please provide more information about the crash and provide the output of 
what is being reported by SELinux.

Re: Who? Me?? Attacked???

2013-04-21 Thread Aaron Gray
Why is this not all automated on the net so there is a global Fedora
database of SELinux AVC's. That intelligently ignores but tallies what is
know to be a fault and highlights any new breaks ?

Oh, and I believe bugzilla is crap and needs replacing with something more
user friendly. It took 4 attempts to make an entry each time loosing what I
had typed and ended up with an incomplete entry in the end.

These two need to be combined. Also we need all error logs at startup to be
beamed into our new central control centre.

BTW. This is not an April fools joke.
